Abbotsford Canucks' Aatu Räty Leaves Game 2 Against Texas Stars
Only a few minutes into his return to the lineup, Abbotsford Canucks centre Aatu Räty left Game 2 of the team's Western Conference Final matchup against the Texas Stars due to injury. Before returning tonight, Räty had missed the AHL Canucks' past eight Calder Cup Playoff games. His last game was Game 2 of Abbotsford's five-game series against the Coachella Valley Firebirds.

He looked shaky heading off the ice and almost immediately went down the tunnel and into the dressing room. Räty remained off the bench for the end of the first period and was not present to start the second. Räty has played in six of Abbotsford's playoff games this season, two of which he did not end up finishing. In this span, he has tallied three assists and seven shots on net. During the regular season, he had 17 goals and 23 assists in 43 games played for Abbotsford. He played in 33 games with the Vancouver Canucks and put up seven goals and four assists.

Abbotsford Canucks Live: Follow the updates from Game 2 of the AHL West finals
The Abbotsford Canucks play Game 2 of their AHL Western Conference final series tonight at the Abbotsford Centre, and recent history is on their side. The Vancouver Canucks' farmhands take a 1-0 lead on the Texas Stars into the night, thanks to a 3-2 overtime triumph over the Stars on Thursday at the Abbotsford Centre. In the last three Western finals, the team that won Game 1 has also been victorious in Game 2, and each time that team has also gone on to win the series. The series winner represents the West in the Calder Cup AHL championships. Abbotsford (44-24-2-2) were three points better than Texas (42-26-3-0) in the regular season. The teams didn't meet at all in league play. This is the fourth season that Vancouver has had its farm team in Abbotsford. Coach Manny Malhotra's crew has won three playoff rounds already this year. The club won two rounds combined in the previous three years. If you aren't able to watch the game in person, scroll down for the play-by-play updates from tonight's game. • Abbotsford Canucks Recap: Christian Wolanin scores OT goal as Abby beats Texas 3-2 in Game 1 • Does Abbotsford's success mean Malhotra will outskate the Canucks? • The Abbotsford Canucks' strong season and what it may mean in the long run Classic entrance video. A little foreshadowing, as it were, with the Aatu Räty inclusion? Pregame prep from the Stars side. No lineups posted as of yet but Abbotsford PXP man Brandon Astle reporting that Aatu Räty is back tonight after missing the past eight games with injury. A sellout is expected. Astle said on the broadcast that there's even a resale market tonight. sewen@
